After selecting the bamboo, Shi Nianqing split it into two halves. She shaved down the nodes in the center, creating a smooth, concave channel. Relying on her own sense of touch, she split the bamboo into strips about one centimeter wide. In her hands, the long bamboo seemed like a work of art, swiftly and deftly divided into uniform pieces. She then halved those again, creating thin slices approximately two millimeters thick. She set them all aside to wait.
"You still dare to protest your innocence? If you have wronged the infant on the ground, then you are even more guilty," Emperor Minghui roared in a rage.
"Someone came to the apothecary to cause trouble, claiming that a patient died from the medicine. Dr. Qiu, as the attending physician, has been taken away!" Mo Lan said in one breath.
"That's a huge difference! I haven't finished speaking yet..." Before Li Zhiyu could finish, Duoduo suddenly ran over and threw himself into her arms. She caught him instinctively, her steps stumbling slightly.
In the next instant, he felt two cool, soft lips seal his words. He looked at Sheng Ge, who was inches away, in astonishment, his mind unable to process what was happening.

"May I ask if Bai Zhi is here?" A male voice, which sounded somewhat familiar, drifted over—polite and gentle. Bai Zhi almost jumped off the sofa.
One student, feeling dissatisfied and hoping to make an impression on the visitors from Wuyi Lane, raised an objection.
Bai Zhi was embarrassed. If she ate the egg peeled by her senior brother, it would displease Sima Jinghong; if she ate the one peeled by Sima Jinghong, it would upset her senior brother. She decided to eat neither.
Old Madam Ji summoned Ji Wuxia, gave her a few instructions, and let her take the others outside.
Forget it, if he wanted to eat meat, he had to let others have some broth. He stepped back quietly. Thinking of the years spent drifting at sea, he felt a twinge of guilt toward his wife and children, so he sought a leisurely position, hoping to spend more time with them.
Fu Hengzhi sensed something and looked up. To no surprise, he met a pair of pleasantly surprised eyes. Gu Zian's smiling voice echoed in the kitchen, "Is it ready to eat?" Though phrased as a question, it was already a certainty.
In reality, that boot was unique; the sole concealed a letter related to a task in the Liang family dungeon. The Liang family had been searching for this boot, but for fear of attracting unwanted attention from other clans, they dared not search too openly.
After everyone finished the battle, Ning Rongrong walked over from the service counter, smiling as she carried bags of gold soul coins.
Although the third uncle lived among the commoners, he had a natural talent for business. He built a vast family fortune and was known as the richest man in the capital. This allowed the eldest uncle and his father to remain extremely upright, as the family was so wealthy that there was no need for corruption.
Well aware that villains often die from talking too much, Qin Shou wasted no more words and immediately summoned his second martial soul: the Dragon-Gall Silver Spear.

As ranged attackers, archers were the best equipped. Beyond their bows and arrows, their sidearms were also vital, allowing them to shoot down enemies from afar and engage in melee combat when necessary.
A hundred-thousand-year soul beast that has transformed into human form is essentially a soul beast starting its cultivation over; it does not possess the full strength and power of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast.
In the hundred years since the otherworldly realms descended upon Earth, no professional in human history had ever managed to break through the one-hundredth floor.
Her words were like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the heart of the other party, leaving the head of the Zhu family speechless.
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and immediately continued preparing for the upcoming press conference.
If this were any other powerful sect, those people would likely have disappeared by tomorrow after encountering such a situation.
With that meager harvest, even if she didn't take a commission, the manor wouldn't have any surplus money, so the idea of making a profit was impossible.
Fox demons are born with a talent for seduction; they are famously promiscuous, yet also famously devoted. When it comes to matters of love and passion, no species is more proficient than they are. Because of his profession, Pang Xie knew that the Hengniang mentioned in the "Ghost Fox Tales" had actually existed. That story was not just a groundless rumor.
